    Passenger side window issue

    Taking a chance this question will be answered. Hopefully, it will given I didn’t get a full year from my membership lol. 2001 996 C4, passenger window is having issues. Window drops waaaay down automatically when rolled up. See photo. If window is in the up position when the door is open, it does not drop slightly to close the door and the glass contacts the cabriolet top when closing the door. Then, once the door is closed, the window automatically opens six inches on the up cycle inexplicably. When rolling down, the window squeaks and the rubber seal collapses into the sill and pops back o…

    Help needed, pinouts of PCM for BU camera

    Hi All, I am retro fitting an aftermarket camera into the factory automated pop out on my 2009 Cayenne Turbo S. I have an aftermarket head unit which is the pioneer DMH-WT8600nex. I have successfully integrated it into the Porsche system including the fiber optic and I now have remotely run wires for the new retrofitted pioneer BC-10 camera into the mechanical body. I reconnected the PCM temporarily to re-enable the backup camera pop out and then pulled fuse 55 to reset the system because I couldn't find the setting... I can confirm that it reset and when shifting to reverse the mechanical bo…

    2004 996.2 C4S - Engine Seized. Help?

    I do not know the cause but there is metal in the oil. I had the IMS bearing replaced 4 years ago but sadly the warrantee has expired. I had a 60k mile check up at a Porsche dealer less than 2K miles ago but they missed it and claim to have no obligation. Sad... Option 1: Replace the engine. $25k to $30 is my best guess Option 2: Sell it as is Thoughts? Advice?

    Apple Carplay

    Recently purchased a 2019 718 Cayman. I expected it to have Apple CarPlay, but when I plug into the USB in the center console, the only option I get is iPad. The car has Bose and Navigation, but not the phone box. Is there anything like a software update available that will enable CarPlay through the center console USB? Sadly, the dealer has not been much help. TIA for any help.

    1996 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo — Alarm/Immobilizer Issue After Water Damage

    Hi everyone, I’m working on a 1996 Porsche 911 (993) Turbo, and I’m currently having a problem with the factory alarm/immobilizer system. The car had been exposed to water, and several electrical control modules/PCBs were affected by water intrusion. I have already removed, cleaned, and dried the affected circuit boards, and there are no obvious signs of corrosion remaining. However, I still cannot get the immobilizer/alarm system to pass its normal initialization. Current symptoms: As soon as I turn the ignition/power on, the horn starts sounding continuously. The lights keep flashing contin…
